Yikes! 1960A sounding better than my Mesa Trad (!?!)

[Mustaine-who?]

IMO, Marshall 4x12s always sound better than Mesa 4x12s.


I'm not surprised at all. Marshalls are warm/tight/bright/dark in all the right places.

I've never played a Mesa 4x12 I liked. My "friend" stole my recto cab. I miss the friend more than the cab.

As far as new cabs are concerned i feel the complete opposite. Most new Marshall cabs I've played at GC's sounds like crap to me.

Not dis-agreeing...but a "new" cab will always sound compromised until the speakers break in. Do you think the new ones at GCs are broken in?

Probably not, but I've liked Mesa cabs in the stores. And i used to think the Mesa OS4x12 sounded like crap unit i was at LolGreg's and it was the best sounding cab out of a bunch of them. And it sounded better than his old Mills 4x12 he had.
